Canadian War Cemetery, Holten, The Netherlands

In this Cemetery, 1,355 Canadian Soldiers are buried. They sacrificed their lives liberating Holland from the evil of Nazi occupation. I would not be here today had it not been for the bravery of these young men. May we never forget. God Bless every one of those souls. The condition of the grounds is absolutely immaculate. A testament to the Dutch appreciation of our brave heroes.
